A porn lament

Yesterday, I wrote that I’ve been surfing for porn a bit more. One place I’ve been turning to is FTV Girls. This is a membership site that I join every so often, and then let my membership lapse.

It features gorgeous young women, almost entirely unenhanced – photos and video, and generally very high production values. This site is so close to being really perfect for me that I keep coming back; but it’s got some really frustrating flaws that push me away, and that make me continue my quest for the perfect porn site.

Most of these flaws aren’t so much flaws as differences in taste. But there’s one major flaw.

I’ll start with the differences in taste, because they’re more interesting to me (it’s always interesting to me how we all differ in our tastes):

Vegetables: I really don’t need, ever, to see a woman insert a vegetable in her pussy. The people who maintain this site seem to think that there’s little hotter than a zucchini getting lucky. Fortunately, while there’s a lot of cukes in cunts, there’s a lot of shoots that don’t feature that.

Panties: I like them. The women on this site seem rarely to wear them. That sucks for me.

Gaping pussy shots: I like pussies. I like to taste them, to finger them, to fuck them. But full screens of spread labia do nothing for me. I like seeing a pussy, but would far prefer to see a smiling face at the same time. If there’s not room in the frame for a woman’s face, I’m not sure I need to see her cunt.

Public nudity: FTV is sort of a shrine to public nudity. The models walk through malls flashing their breasts, or lifting their skirts or dresses (and they’re not wearing panties, natch). I have nothing against it, per se. And I do so enjoy women dressed, in casual clothes, that this ends up fulfilling a desire of mine unwittingly. But there’s something almost anti-sexual about seeing a woman squeeze her breasts for the camera as she walks past Banana Republic.

Youth: There are a few models on the site who honestly look like they’re fifteen. They’re billed as sporting “baby faces.” It icks me out. I’d give a lot to see some women in their 20s. And 30s. And 40s. And maybe even 50s.

Cartwheels: The site seems to think that seeing breasts bounce around – whether in cartwheels or jogging or yoga or whatever – is the hottest thing around. To me, seeing body parts divorced from sexual context isn’t sexy. It’s pretty, but not sexy.

Those are the taste differences. Now, for the flaw:

Search: FTV has a lot of models. I can’t count how many. Given this, the site’s paltry search functionality is maddening. I can sort the models by date, name, age, height, or bra size. And I can search by a bunch of categories (first time experience, public nudity, real orgasm, dildo play, fetish play*, extreme girl, sporty girl, busty girl). But honestly, most of the models have shoots in most of the categories, so they end up not being helpful – and the site’s means of displaying each model render the search functionality useless, anyway. There are tags added to shoots, but these too seem to be driven by the nearly monomaniacal interests of the site managers, and there are too few of them to be useful. Any search inevitably turns up 90% of the models.
